Journey to Easter with Fr. John Sassani
This Lent, our small faith communities will be reflecting on the Lenten gospels using homilies preached by Fr. John as a starting point for discussion and faith sharing. These reflections are so full of hope and practical wisdom for growing deeper in our relationship with Christ. These sessions are sure to bring much joy and insight into your own Lenten journey. If you would like to join a group, please contact Kate at kneal@sholnewton.org. Groups meet 60-90 minutes once a week for 6 weeks through the week of March 30.

Inclement Weather Policy
For weekday morning Masses: if Newton Public Schools are closed or have a delayed opening, the morning Masses at both Sacred Heart and Our Lady’s will be cancelled. This is for the safety of those who attend Mass, and it also allows for the clearing of parking lots and stairways.
For weekend Masses: please check the cancellations list on local TV and radio stations. You can also call either of the parish offices at 617-527-7560 or 617-969-2248 (the greeting will have information) or check here on our homepage to see if Masses have been cancelled. For Our Lady’s weekend Masses: If possible, someone will send an email to the ministry list. If you are scheduled for Mass but personally unable to attend due to the weather, please call 617-527-7560 ext.270 and leave a message.
Remember, we each have a duty to keep ourselves and our family safe. If any Mass has an announced intention and is cancelled, that intention will be rescheduled to the next available Mass -
